This is great looking car IMO, it's a design study by Michiel van den Brink (Holland) called the 'Ferrari 599 GTO Mugello'.

Quite nice, it looks a bit like the 575 Zagato.

The idea it might be produced even if just for a very selected few customers makes me drool.. badly!

why there is M like maserati in the front grille? nonetheless beauty, still.

after the 430 ... ferrari isnt the same for me ...
fancy electronics and gadgets are great ... but why cant they make a prettier face :?

@ inso .. I guess that M stands for Mugello.

The M is my logo and stands for Michiel.
I'm not allowed to sell this car with the prancing horse untill Ferrari gives its blessing.

And another example of Dutch glory ;)

They also worked on the Spyker D12

It is so UGLYYYYY, I cant whatc it!! I love Ferrari's in general , all of them , but this is not even close to my tastes....sorry :?

Nice to see your arround Michiel!

mmamamia rocco sifredo pizza spaghetti viva italiaa!porca miseria inglesse y mafancculo!!viva la ferrari y la maserati

ewww...

Michiel i like your concept, some old GTO like the holes in the front and other classic ferrari looking details, this should be kimi´s next personal transport.. Not too flashy, not too ordinary and still unmistakeably ferrari.

It looks great!!!

I saw a photoshoped 599 Cabrio somewhere and it looked great. 8)

Too many retro details on that car and Ferrari is revolutionary in it's design, not evolutionary (911, mini...)

I know Michiel, he makes some pretty amazing designs

I like most of them, just like this one WOW :shock: :mrgreen:

make it in very limited numbers, i love these rebodies Ferraris lastely just like back in the day

the 250 gto details are perfect 8)

haha the forkliftthing is cool

Nice :D

So you are the actual coach builder then?

Yes he is :wink:

And what a coach builder!

Love your work Michiel! :D

Thanks!

I'm not the coachbuilder, I'm the designer.
The actual coachbuilding will be performed by Alwin Hietbrink.

Really pretty car. Definitely a lot prettier than the 599 Fiorano.

The 599 GTO is ready for production!

For the engine specs have a look at:

Vandenbrink GTO

Vandenbrink Design joins the revival of special coachbuilding by presenting their design of the GTO, a tribute to the 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO.

The GTO was designed in 2006 by Michiel van den Brink, who founded the Vandenbrink Design company with business partner Robert Koumans in the Netherlands.
The worldwide acclaim the artist impressions received exceeded all expectations; TopGear even wrote "Ocular Nirvana: arguably the best-looking car in the world". The overwhealming response put the bar high, but it encouraged Vandenbrink to accept the challenge by prepairing the design for production.


The coachwork will be completely new; the only remaining visible parts unaltered are the A-pillars and front window. Everything else visible will be of our own design, handcrafted following the classic tradition in aluminium by Dutchman Alwin Hietbrink.
Hietbrink is worldwide known for his excellent aluminium craftsmanship in restoration and rebuilding projects such as the genuine Ferrari 250 GTO, 250 GT SWB, 250 Testa Rossa, 250 GT Drogo, 275 GTB, 365 GTB Daytona, 212 Vignale and many other types.

Like all original Ferrari 250 GTOs were different in details and therefore individually unique, each Vandenbrink 599 GTO will be different too.

Optional interior/upholstery redesign will be performed by the Dutch craftsman Henk van Lith, also worldwide known by his specialization in the making and designing of high quality Italian interiors. They are absolute specialists with Ferrari cars.

The GTO is technically based on the superb Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano platform.

In cooperation with race engineering expert EDO Competition two versions are offered:

- 599 GTO (650 hp)
- high performance 630 GTO (> 750 hp)

Correction: "P4/5 by Pininfarina" is the official name. ;)

I understand the amount of effort it must take to design something like this, but I just can't find this design particularly beautiful. But, I personally like the 599 GTB, so what do I know?

Michiel, nice publication in Autovisie today, it's great hearing that you are still busy with this stunning car. I hope to see the production process myself next year ;)

Interesting to hear the cooperation with Edo, and the power of the engine!

Don't like it. . . :(

Heard about a Edo 599XX a while ago, looks like the project is more clear now :mrgreen:
